From a press release:
“Miracle and Sippin’ Santa–the adored Holiday-themed cocktail pop-up bars– are overjoyed to be returning for the 2021 season with new partner locations and new drink menus around the globe. Entering its eighth year, the Miracle team is committed to making this one of the best seasons yet, with new cities and teams joining the mix and previous bars returning. After the challenges of 2020, the ability to bring both cocktail concepts safely back is a momentous occasion to toast to this Christmas.
The Miracle story began in 2014 when Boehm transformed his bar Mace into a winter wonderland during the weeks between Thanksgiving and Christmas. Guided by the advice of his mother, Miracle on Ninth Street was born, and its fervent reception soon led industry friends from other cities around the globe reaching out to recreate the Miracle holiday magic in their own bars. Since then, and led by Boehm and General Manager Joann Spiegel, the Miracle concept has spread far and wide and to this day continues to open its doors to new cities around the world.
During this time, Jeff “Beachbum” Berry came to the Miracle team wanting to partner on a tropical Christmas offshoot of Miracle and from there the concept for Sippin’ Santa was put into place. Described as one of Imbibe magazine’s “25 Most Influential Cocktail Personalities of the Past Century,” Beachbum is partnering again with the Miracle team to bring back Sippin’ Santa this year, including the flagship location at his own bar in New Orleans and select cities around the country. Expect new, innovative cocktails as well as classic favorites to return.
Both Miracle and Sippin’ Santa locations will open their doors from November 22 to December 31, inviting guests to toast in person. All pop-ups will be decked in boughs of holly, from twinkling lights, vintage garlands, ribbons, tchotchkes and more, paired with a soundtrack of holiday songs for the ultimate setting of merriment. The magically curated space will serve as the perfect background for heartfelt reunions and shared experiences with loved ones all season long.”
